There is also ultimate sevens going on free on ythttps://www.youtube.com/live/T1RHa84mFxo?si=bhXSdy0om1h8RPUxIts pretty good
>>157880138I really enjoyed the rgr tour but it feels like the end might be coming for the rugby championship, which would be a real shame
>>157882399On a 4 year cicle you get two rgr with nations championship those years, one full rugby championship and one shortened one on wc years, so they killed it basically but maybe it will give it more value since it doesnt happen every year
BumpPrem in like an hour
need it or keep it?
>>157897885What eddie herns does to a motherfucker
are you addicted to making threads or what
>>157898474Did you just delete an ai image for the npc game?
>>157898538i deleted a pic yes, was it ai? i have no idea, i didnt look that closely, it was from northland's social media
>>157898556Oh now you dont know when its ai?
>>157898581what are you talking about
>>157898588Whatever i might watch it, i think a npc superrugby merge could work, and if you started calling waratahs and reds just nsw and qld it would bring league fans for sure
>>157898645npc can't merge with super rugby since the provincial teams are representative sides of the unions and not owned by nzr
>>157898819https://www.rugbypass.com/news/report-nzr-summit-provides-shock-option-to-replace-super-rugby-and-hilux-npc/Its one of their options
>>157899074it's an "option" but it won't happen
>19 all until the second to last minute>challenger scores a penalty goal>defenders work their hardest to push through while the crowd goes wild>northland fumble it and counties win it for the second time evershield matches are KINO
>>157901710Didn't see that coming
>>157901822
>>157901922
>>157901933
I only watched like the fisrt 10 minutes northland was dominating, i didnt gave the game a chance and switched to a movie
>>157902620
Aus vs sa tommorow will be good
My prediction is that australia will look real good until the last 20mins where sa might score 3 trys
I have $5 on the Cadburys at 3:1 odds
>>157880138>nz might kill superrugby or merge it with npc,qrd?t. AFL watching New South Welshman who only watches internationals to pretend he's back in his catholic high school days
Anyone watching this or nah?
Bokke will heem
>>157923281Yeah. Because why not.
>>157923232nzr is haemorrhaging money so theyve come up with some half baked ideas to fix thingshttps://www.1news.co.nz/2026/09/23/future-of-super-rugby-and-npc-among-topics-at-crunch-nz-rugby-summit/
FUCKING WELCOME TO COUNTRY AGAIN FUCKING CUNTSI would rather sit through ten hakas than a single of this nonsense
Oh for fucks sake I’d forgotten about this welcome to country shit. I’m sorry Aussies but I can’t stand it
>>157923298it was pretty funny back when they did waltzing matilda to answer the haka
>Franco Mostert>Handré Pollard>Lood de JagerRetirement home vibes

>>157923318One more run brother
>>157923295Thought they were the only country that cared about this sport, though?

>>157923354yes but there's a lot of fuckery in managementim too retarded to know the specifics sorry
>>157923360Yeah good idea idk why I got wrapped into this what else should we watch?
>>157923312It was a very racist thing to do
>>157923342Avoid Aboriginal Spear
>>157923363cric is on but thinking about going to bed, sounds like the most exciting of the 3 options tbqh
>>157923360>>157923363>>157923363>>157923372samefag
>>157923388Fag

Trash Africa kek

kek and I thought my spoort was cooked but this fucking ridiculous
inb4 australia blows it in the last 10 minutes

KEK a league player would have scored that just fine
HES DROPPED IT
lollies status : spilled
3 players binned this cunt is taking the piss
>how do we bail the boks out of that>say no more
now the wallabies are down to 12 for absolutely no fucking reason
>rassie made the callcan this ref make any call without going upstairs?>3 yellow cards

3 yellows the fuck
sent off for offside kek nice "sport"

>42-36 on big screenscripts leaking
>BOK on the touchlineoh, that explains it

kek should’ve went through the hands ya boxheaded zaffa
How embarrassing
He should of kept running in circles in the in goal to keep working down the clock
Bin another one you fucking bald cunt
This isn't even subtle anymore.
this is my fault for switching it on at the 55 minute mark
if nrl fans think the bunker is a problem, the tmo is fucking worsejesus christfuck rugby
if next years World Cup is full of this shit it will officially kill off the sport in Australia.
YES, RASSIE, I CAN GEAR YOU
>boks struggling with 4 extra playerskwab
Cheating niggers
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
FUCK YOU SAONLY 12 MEN ON THE FIELD AND YOU STILL FUCKING LOST
Fuck off south africa
>Drop, turnover>Drop, turnover>Drop, turnoverOnly caught the last 5 minutes. Was this a high skilled game?
>rassie couldn't make it happenSouth Africa in shambles
how come the Wannabies coach looks like a Sportsbet trader?
>>157924011it was until literally the last ten minutes when Australia got hit with our yellow cards in a rowfuck me, the world cup next year is going to be atrocious if they have this same level of bungling officiating. and this vmo crap going back five plays? ridiculous shit.
>cant beat 11 fucking wobblieslmaomao
confirming it: australia is back
They keep saying South Africa are the two time world champions.I thought New Zealand owned union?
>>157924046the wahs have single handedly killed rugby in new zealans
Sheddie here, just popping in to say fuck BOK
>>157924066Pretty sure the MIGHTY FUCKIN KNOIGHTS took their place in the grand final, get fucked new zealans
wannabees always go well in perth for some reason
>>157924066thank fuck they lost or it'd be even more dire
wallabies so far unbeaten in the les kiss era.that's called queensland spirit.
Don't even know the name of a single player desu.
>>157924150for me it's the smelly prop fa'a'asualaialia'iopepapipolutolieui'ui'i
>>157924109>Les Kiss another leaguie teaching you cunts how to play footy
Draw at Eden Park next Saturday to preserve the unbeaten run? Or even a win hopefully?>>157924202>anotherIsn't he the first one?
>>157924248Our RWC 2027 backline will be entirely league players except for either Ikitau or Jogensen>10. Carter Gordon>11. JAS/Jorgo>12. Len Ikitau/Angus Crichton>13. JAS/Angus Crichton>14. Mark Nawaqanitawase>15. Tom Wright
>>157924377Right, I was too focused on the coach.
>>157924248A win at Sydney Stadium maybe, but this Aussie team isn't going to break the Eden Park hoodoo this year.
>>157925039A draw at Eden Park + a win at Sydney is enough to win back the Bledisloe.
I told you all, australia was playing good with us here and we also went hard against the bok pre greatest rivalryLets goo i take anyone winning the wc but sa and nz
>>157928053well strap in because it's 100% going to be SA again
as long as it's not france
south africa more like shit gayfrica LOL LMAO
>>157944717As long as it's not any team from the north
>>157928013For sure, but they're unlikely to pull it off this year. Next year will be good odds though. Wallabies in their home RWC year will be a new beast
>>157944242No i dont buy it Its just time we get a new country winning either france or ireland or england again
>>157945288The ultimate troll result will be for NZ to retain the cup with 2 draws while Australia also get to continue their unbeaten run.
>>157945423Aside from maybe France, I really don't see a single NH team be capable of stopping the boks. But even for France that's a massive if. It's going to be one of the SH again until the NH can get their shit together.
>>157945670Remember that sa and nz face off in the quarter finals, then whoever wins plays france in the semis (most likely)So if its SA that goes thought they face france after playing 6 games problably beaten up after the nz game, and france hardest game until semis its fijy
Rwc27 simulatorhttps://rugbok.com/simulator
>>157945843I think it'll be SA and Oz. NZ have lost every single RWC match they've played against a sole host. 4 out of 4 so far, and off Australia's resurgence I don't see that changing next year.
losing the bledisloe would actually be the best thing that could happen to nz rugby
>>157945423I don't think you have to 'buy it' little bro, it's happening whether you want it or not kek
>>157945266i wouldnt mind ireland or wales (lol)
>>157946324Lets see how long this new australia last, if they win the tests against nz in two weeks they are contenders for sure>>157946443Why is that?
>>157946513Walels is the only correct Great Britain option (maybe an argument for Scatland too) and unfortunately they are on par with fucking Shitaly at the momentDireland and Englel can fuck right off
>>157946530>ireland>great britaini agree england can fuck off though
>>157946552VPN off, Padraig
>>157946563believe whatever you like
>>157946570most obvious /rug/ cazzienext you'll be telling me you don't know about the based viperposterembarrassing
>>157946573yeah im a casual sorry for being interested in rugby
>>157946576genuine question, how does one post on 4channel, be interested in rugby, but never lurk /rug/?are you new to the game?
>>157946443Actually not wrong come to think of it, the Boks themselves have come from a nadir of 2015-18 to become as dominant as they are now.
>>157946580I cant remember the last /rug/ before i started making the threads
>>157946580no i have been watching rugby since i was a kid but i go through periods of gaining and losing interest, i come to /rug/ whenever i am in a period of interest but i'm not here enough to remember all the memes
>>157946590interesting, did you lose interest most recently due to Razor's era and have become interested again due to Rennie? fucked how much interest and success has fallen off in the last 15 years
>>157946590You switched to league?
>>157946601no im a filthy cantab so i love razor, my most recent loss of interest was after the 2023 wc disaster and i didnt actually watch any AB games while he was coach so didnt know how bad he was doing>>157946613fuck no id rather uppercut myself
>>157946517we need to hit rock bottom first if we ever want to get back to being good
>>157946616>fuck no id rather uppercut myselfkek basedhe unironically wasn't horrendous, if the timing was different he might have ended up achieving a fair bithis main issue was a lack of cohesive attack plans, it seemed almost every match was them figuring it out as they went along, it was painful to watch at times, but I feel for the guy a bit, but I think NZR's hands were tied>>157946613league is popular in Auckland (and other little pockets outside the city too) and certainly gives rugby a run for its money, but there are some extremely parochial, died-in-the-wool parts of the country that would die before they followed league over rugby, don't believe all the kiwi and pozzie doomers in /nrl/, rugby still very much commands attention, especially internationals
>>157946640Yeah but those country guys wont last forever, you really need a strong supereugby or npc or whatever, i hope the current mess ends up with a good league that get both kiwis and aussies watching Also the rwc27 moggin rlwc26 should help
>>157946664i will last forever
>>157946667Based
THREAD THEME SONGhttps://youtu.be/Yif8SrUw94s
>>157880138>Big news: nz might kill superrugby or merge it with npc, ireland and italy rejected the proposed six nations game in the usaSounds based to me. I havent followed ruggers in years because of the creeping faggotry.Professionalism ruined rugby.
>>157947353>Professionalism ruined rugby.God i hate the amateur nigs
>>157947353Rugby needed professionalism to avoid yet another schism. Better it died later than sooner.
kek the all blackeds really thought their streaming service would when everyone's fed up with subscriptions
